    1) The Pitch
    2) Not starting Oxo
    3) Robinho in the second goal was offside
    4) Vermi Slip
    5) Not a Penalty

    Still doesn't excuse the performance.

    Crap performance, but you're right to point out where we had some really bad fortune too.

    Not really an excuse though tonight, we were woeful

  5. correct - Robinho was onside when he scored. He was running back in the build up, 25 yards away from the through ball to Ibrahamovic.

    Ibra was offside though. When the ball went to him he was off.

    Thus, it was offside.

    Strictly speaking there needs to be daylight for him to be off and as the TV angle showed - his back leg was offside, but his front leg - in the direction he was running - was level with the last man.

  9. Ibra was clearly onside. Thus it was onside.

    Moot point anyway - we were ****.

    No. He was offside. Tight but he was off. No 'clearly' about it.

    Oxo would of made no difference, any one who uses that as a point needs to calm it.

  12. We'll disagree on that then - the replays told me he was onside.

    Anyway its a totally moot point - we fully deserved to get smashed after that performance. Not good enough

    We were worse tonight than we were at Old Trafford. If Milan had taken all of their chances, the scoreline could have been far more embarrasing.

    How do you agree to disagree when its a fact then he was off? Like I said they drew the line and he was off.

    Ibrahimovic was offside. Doesn't make that an excuse for our performance though.

    I concede Ibra was offside, there is nothing in the rule book about needing to be daylight between last man and the player.
